I enjoyed pedalling around the city centre after the peleton had passed and before roads were reopened. Fantastic to see so many families on bikes, at no risk from other traffic. Almost like the happy times when Lendal Bridge was closed to many road users.

you DICK!

All you ever do is turn people against biking with your silly patronising comments. If you actually want to promote biking, change your attitude

What a great promotional video for Yorkshire, looking resplendent in the sunshine.

Britain's most beautiful county is North Yorkshire. I can see all those shocked Southerners wanting to head North.

Prepare for the invasion of tourists from everywhere. This is worth million to our economy.

What a weekend!
It was amazing out in the hills on Saturday and what an all day party yesterday here in York.
Brilliant!

Hahahaha, screw the whingers and naysayers who just didn't get it and spent so long moaning before it happened.
We had a ball.

What an Extrtaordinary day/weekend. I am so very proud to say I come from this wonderful city.
Standing outside of York Theatre Royal as the minutes ticked by you could sense and feel the buzz that was building and when the sponsor trucks came by in all shapes and colours the crowd only let out a cry of great joy.
To see the Avro Lancaster and Spitfire in close formation was an incredibly heartwarming sight they even did a couple of circuits and flew by again BRILLIANT!!.
Then finally the TDF riders and assorted team cars all seem to whizz by in a flash. Loved every minute and my personal thanks to EVERYONE involved a truly magnificent effort you should all be very proud to have brought this Worldwide sporting spectacle to our streets and roads.

The sooner it's all over and gone the better!!!!!! I can see the council tax increase next year already lol lol....,

Do us a favour and put on a post outlining what interests you (even if it is only freestyle moaning). Normally I would encourage supporting minorities but when it is 100,000 to 1 it is not a minority - it's a lost cause.

Very sadly we had to be out of the county for the weekend but I can confirm in other parts of the UK the interest in Yorkshire that the TdF has generated has been remarkable. To see Bishy Road on the national news for all the right reasons, and to hear how much enjoyment has been experienced by so many confirms the decision to host the event in this part of the world was absolutely the right thing to do.

Nice to see Yorkshire on TV. I'm not surprised York people are a bit grumpy after a year of persecution.

Meaning what ? Collective paranoia ?

Yeah because there are no swivel eyed loons trying to impose a cycling culture on the city are there ? The Lendal bridge farce and all these 20mph signs must be a figment of my imagination ?

I'm not opposed to cycling, i'm opposed to the wishes of people like PP, Anna, Hoofarted and clones.

Up early here in USA to watch the start. York looking beautiful as usual. But unfortunately most of the roll-out from York was lost to TV adverts. #NBCFail

Totally agree! The first 20 minutes concentrated on the 5 riders at the front interspersed with shots of the Minster and Cliffords tower.Once they got to the top of Bootham we had to go to a "break" and rejoined as they swept round onto Borobridge Rd. How this coverage is supposed to encourage more people to visit York is beyond me!

I agree too. The TV coverage of York was the worst of the whole route.. extemely disapointing.

TV wise, York was totally over shadowed

So people posting on here put others off cycling do they? Right. Get it now. But who were those 100s of thousands out on bikes at the weekend? Would it have been millions without Paul's comments?
